However,some Alpha subjects are also described as:ambitious, boastful, conceited, ingenious,opportunistic, outgoing, show-off and shrewd. Also,the IPAR staff noted an undesirable quality ofself-seeking in some Alpha subjects.

In the shaded area of the chart, the horizontaldimension indicates the mean applicant raw score forthe v.1 scale (Externality/Internality) plus or minusone standard deviation. The vertical dimensionindicates the mean applicant raw score for the v.2scale (Norm-Favoring/Norm Doubting) plus or minusone standard deviation. The black square representsthe test taker’s scores. The data was based on asample of 40,814 applicants for the position of policeofficer/deputy/trooper

The items printed below were endorsed by this test taker as indicated by the T(true) or F(false) in the parenthesesafter each item. The percent following the T or F endorsement is the percent of police and public safety applicantswho endorsed the item in the same direction. Items printed in italics were correlated with substandard performanceon three or more police officer job function categories as rated by sergeants who knew the post probation officerswell. It is useful to discuss selected item endorsements with the applicant during the interview. This practice mayhelp individualize the suitability assessment, and will also serve to rule out mismarks or misunderstandings by theapplicant.
